Community & Connection Committee (Tri-C)


Mission Statement:

The Community and Connection Committee (Tri-C) has a focus on community building and providing resources to faculty and staff associated with the Brody School of Medicine. To this end, we provide a forum for academicians and clinicians regardless of gender, age, affiliation, specialty, or any other feature to provide support and promote collaboration so we can grow the education, research, and clinical enterprises as a collective. The goal of bringing people together is to educate them on the resources that exist and encourage engagement, understanding, and interactions that can make the whole greater than the sum of its parts.
